## Adaptive AI interviews: Don’t stop at “I led the project.”

Use the role, resume and each answer to probe contribution, judgment and depth.

- **01 · Resume claim:** “Led a major migration.” — Start with the candidate’s own experience.
- **02 · Targeted probes:** “What did you own?” “Why that approach?” “What failed?” — Go past team-level claims and rehearsed summaries.
- **03 · Hiring evidence:** Ownership Trade-offs Reasoning Unresolved gaps — Turn the conversation into a scorecard and useful human follow-ups.

Controls: Role goals · Resume cross-checks · Weighted criteria · Coverage & duration controls

Illustrative dialogue. HireVue’s AI Interviewer also asks probing follow-ups from a JD-based script; its AI-scored question sets ask every candidate the same questions.

## Explanation Checker: A right answer is a start. Now see the reasoning.

A dedicated post-test workflow gives your team more evidence to review.

*Illustrative workflow*

1. **Answer correctly** — Selected questions return after the test.
2. **Explain on video** — Candidates explain how they reached the answer.
3. **Evaluate reasoning** — AI evaluates the explanation.
4. **Review the evidence** — Your team makes the decision.

Connect the original answer to the candidate’s explanation and an AI evaluation. Your team gets a separate layer of reasoning evidence.

## Resume evidence: A claim isn’t the whole story.

- **Explicit evidence** — What the resume directly states.
- **Inferred evidence** — What needs a closer look.
- **Missing information** — What to ask in the interview.

Generate candidate-specific validation questions, then review what the interview confirms or leaves unresolved.

## AI interview languages: Let the conversation start in their language.

English · Hindi · Bengali · Gujarati · Kannada · Malayalam · Marathi · Odia · Punjabi · Tamil · Telugu

Configure the primary interview language; switching supported. Phone outreach separately supports English and Hindi.
